About

It is a small bay with crystal turquoise water and bright sand & rocks cover, so you don't need special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers, hikers etc. It is not crowded place during the season.

Morina Bay coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities, sea kayaking.

7 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Paradise Bay, which has a rating of 8.8.

Morina Bay (Malta) is located outside the Manikata settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Malta island and the correct question is not how to get to Morina Bay, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.

The descent to the beach was a bit challenging, but the place and the view were absolutely stunning. It's definitely worth taking a leisurely stroll amidst nature and enjoying the refreshing air. Unfortunately, swimming wasn't a good option due to the abundance of jellyfish during our visit.

The views are absolutely stunning. The journey from the mainland to this place is not recommended for those who are easily scared.
